Bernstein's Serenade was recorded live with the London Symphony Orchestra
during the Leonard Bernstein Festival which took place at London's Barbican
Centre in May 1986. In the presence of Queen Elizabeth and the Duke of
Edinburgh, Leonard Bernstein conducted a gala concert on 6 May with three
of his most important works: the "Chichester Psalms", the Serenade for
Violin and Orchestra, and the Second Symphony, entitled "The Age of
Anxiety". The soloists in these concerts were Gidon Kremer (violin),
Krystian Zimerman (piano) and Aled Jones (voice).
